Emerging Issues in Drug Abuse

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine have reported that there is a rising concern over the emergence of certain emerging issues in the drug abuse treatment field. These emerging issues include the use of marijuana for recreational purposes, increased use of prescription painkillers, the casual use of some experimental drugs and a rise in the number of people who are using heroin. All these problems come as a result of increasing social complexity and a decline in social control. Most of these issues are difficult to tackle, but it is important for professionals in Inpatient drug rehab in Nashville TN to be aware of them.
